Everyone Will Burn

... maybe prophecies are sometimes set in place for a reason, and everyone in the little town of León should have burned for being so painfully predictable.

In Hebrero and lead actor Macarena Gómez’s capable hands, Everyone Will Burn offers a devilishly compelling depiction of religious mania run amok.

Every frame is lush with atmosphere thanks to both Ona Isart’s cinematography and Patricia Parejo’s costume design. Even in its moments of greatest simplicity, the air of dread never leaves viewers minds...

Those willing to go along for the ride of Everyone Will Burn will be treated to a nice gem of a flick. Its length is what ultimately holds it back from relishing in the eccentric melodramatics it so clearly wants to celebrate.

Everyone Will Burn features impressive visuals and poignant performances, but this Spanish horror film convolutes itself with too many themes.

Not quite a slam dunk, this juicy 125-minute occult saga still has impressive ambition and audacity, at times approaching the zestful nuttiness of Larry Cohen’s 1976 God Told Me To.

Aside running a bit too long for its limited subject matter, the movie is a solid statement on the results of bullying, religious zealotry, and the art of being a small town gossip. 


Everyone Will Burn is cerebral, visceral, and has style for miles.

EVERYONE WILL BURN intrigues. With a distinct visual palette and melodramatic execution in events, the film highlights the promise of director/co-writer David Hebrero and what he can bring to the table.

With a pitch perfect opening and a mesmerizing ending, David Hebrero's Everyone Will Burn is a relentless tale that immerses us in intense grief, religious mania, and the blurred lines between good and evil.
